Silver has been exposed to a hectic trading pattern which emerged after this commodity reached its intra-day low of 15.598 on April 24th 2015. A sharp advance followed and spiked Silver to an intra-day high of 16.732 which was recorded on April 30th 2015. This level is located just above its horizontal resistance level from where Silver dropped to a higher low with an intra-day low of 15.815 which was also recorded on April 30th 2015. Fundamental factors have contributed to this sharp drop. The higher low allowed for the formation of an ascending support level which advanced Silver to a higher high with an intra-day high of 16.761 reached on May 4th 2015.
Price action is now trading inside of its horizontal resistance level after the formation of a descending resistance level exercised downward pressure on this commodity. Silver is anticipated to resume its drift to the downside until a breakdown below its ascending support level will develop. Binary options traders can take advantage from the expected breakdown with binary put options. Today’s binary options trading strategy suggests put options to be placed on rallies above 16.400 for a risk/reward ratio of 1.0/2.29.
Silver was exposed to an increase in volatility which accompanied the violent trading pattern and volatility is expected to increase further as this commodity is trapped inside of a triangle formation. The intersection between its ascending support level and its descending resistance level is located just beneath its horizontal resistance level. Buyers are expected to pressure Silver to the upside, but its most recent intra-day high of 16.761 is anticipated to prevent an extension of the advance. Sellers are likely to successfully force a breakdown below its ascending support level from where this commodity can accelerate down into its horizontal support level.
The first support level awaits Silver at its intra-day low of 16.173 which was recorded on May 7th 2015. This level represents the last instance where the ascending support level reversed a drift to the downside. A breakdown will clear the way down to its intra-day low of 15.815 which was reached on April 30th 2015. This level marks the top end of its horizontal support level. The final support level is located at its intra-day low of 15.598 which was recorded on April 24th 2015 from where a double bottom formation may emerge.
